First, there were hundreds of cavalry running around a few miles north of the city, and then the bandits began to gather in the west of the city. This unusual movement immediately attracted the attention of the guards on the city and quickly reported it to Jin Shenghuan, who was taking a nap in the city tower. However, he was lying on the city wall and looking at it for a long time. The fog makes people look for Kuang Ren.
Kuang Ren was so exhausted at the gate of the city to appease the people that he returned to the Yamen and fell asleep. After hearing about the unusual movements outside the city, he hurried to the city to watch.
"Are our reinforcements coming?" Jin Shenghuan asked with squinted eyes as he looked outside the Zhengbei City. Although the weather turned sunny, it was almost dusk and the Black Wolf Camp was too far away to see clearly. Kuang Ren was also unsure: "If it is reinforcements, It can't be just this small number of people, I guess there are only two to three hundred people... Damn it, it can't be the Lord Governor who is here."
ah! Jin Shenghuan was surprised: "Why do you say that?"
"Look, they should all be cavalry. The two to three hundred people there are most likely from Lao Jiu's Black Wolf Battalion. That is one of the four battalions of Dongchang, and it is also one of the most powerful teams under the Governor's command. The Governor is young, aggressive, warlike and adventurous, and it is very likely that he came with them." Kuang Ren immediately became a little excited, and Jin Shenghuan also became excited after hearing this: "Then, then, open the city gate quickly and let the Lord Governor enter the city."
"No!" Kuang Ren's face gradually returned to calm: "The risk of opening the city gate is too great, too great!" As he said that, he turned to look to the west and saw thousands of thieves marching away: "The city gate is blocked by stones. It is time-consuming and inconvenient. If the soldiers and horses in the north are the little governor's thief army, they will not be allowed to approach the city gate easily. A fight will inevitably occur. Even if the little governor comes to the city and we open the city gate, this will be a threat to the thief army. If you have a good opportunity, you will definitely fight to the death to seize the door. At that time, if you are not careful, you may be taken advantage of. Isn't it all in vain that we have spent so much effort and killed so many people?"
Jin Shenghuan nodded with deep understanding when he heard this: "So we can only watch the two armies fighting outside without interfering." Kuang Ren continued: "It's not yet certain that the little governor is there, maybe it was deliberately staged by the thieves. It’s possible that Double Act wants to trick us into opening the door!”
"Co-author... I'm not the Governor. This, these thieves are really trying their best to seize the city. They can even think of such crooked ways," Jin Shenghuan cursed bitterly. Kuang Ren smiled: "I'm not sure, but there is a high probability that the little governor from the north is here. I don't think Wang Zamao has the brains to play such a dirty trick. Let's wait and see."
Jin Shenghuan breathed a sigh of relief. He leaned on the wall and looked west. He saw about two thousand rebels, including three or four hundred cavalry. "Look at Wang Zamao, this battle is not small. The three hundred brothers from the Black Wolf Camp of the little governor are here." Can you withstand it?"
Kuang Ren scratched his head: "How should I put it? If the ground is not so muddy, if they eat well and sleep well, Wang Zamao's thousand people are not enough to fill the gap between their teeth!" Jin Shenghuan looked sideways and laughed: "Master Kuang said Hehehe, is the Black Wolf Camp really that powerful?"
Kuang Ren smiled: "General Jin, what do you think of my brothers?"
"That's so impressive. Less than a hundred people can penetrate into the tiger's den and seize the city in one fell swoop. And all of them are skilled cavalry and archers who are good at charging and fighting. It's really like one is worth ten, no, a hundred!" Jin Shenghuan said quickly, these words are not flattering. But it comes from the heart.
"I'm embarrassed by what General Jin said." Kuang Ren straightened his expression: "We are the personal guards of the young governor and are mainly responsible for the security of the governor. The Fourth Battalion of Dongchang is the strongest offensive team under the governor. Follow us. The warlord has conquered south and north to suppress bandits and kill Tatars. They have been on the battlefield for a long time. They are all crawling out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Do you think they are worse than my brothers?"
Jin Shenghuan nodded slightly and turned his gaze to Zhengbei: "If you can't enter the city, why did the Lord Governor come so far alone?"
Kuang Ren smiled bitterly: "I can't guess that. Maybe the little governor is just bored."
ah? Jin Shenghuan was confused again. Is this okay?
It was already dusk and the rain had stopped, and even the glow of the setting sun could be seen. Wang Zamao slowly headed north with only a thousand troops and horses that he could manage at the moment. As he got closer and closer to the officers and soldiers, his expressions became more solemn. Three hundred When the cavalry has set up a formation, it is still the kind of pin-zi formation that can advance, attack, retreat and defend. The most effective offensive formation for the cavalry is to attack mainly in the middle and to support the two wings.
This is a team with rich combat experience! Wang Zamao was also a veteran and very discerning, so he became cautious and sent orders to the left and right to be on guard. The archers were prepared to attack him first if the other party's cavalry launched an attack.
When there were still more than two hundred steps away, Wang Zamao ordered to stop. He squinted at the officers and soldiers in the distance who were standing still, but he could feel the overwhelming fighting spirit coming towards him. This was a warrior who had fought many battles. , Wang Zamao immediately broke out in a cold sweat. He had not encountered such officers and soldiers for many years. How could it happen today... Moreover, it was still when he was at his weakest, and he felt that it was hard to be good today.
The two armies faced off for a long time, two hundred paces apart. No one took the initiative to attack or retreat, as if one of them planned to stand still until dark. However, in the end, the officers and soldiers seemed to have lost their patience and rode out of the formation and marched slowly to a hundred paces away. Stopping and waving, Wang Zamao frowned and looked at him, signaling a bandit to ride forward.
Chang Yu was naturally the one who entered the battle. He didn't want to fight with Wang Zamao, but he didn't want to show weakness either. But there was no other way to do it, so he wanted to talk to him. When he saw the bandit coming, he glanced at it and knew it was not the real one. Master: "Go and ask that Wang Zamao to come and see me. If he doesn't have the guts, just go back with his tail between his legs."
No matter how doubtful Wang Zamao was after hearing this, he had to bite the bullet, otherwise it would be so embarrassing! So I went alone with a bow and a sword on my back and a long spear. I cursed in my heart, if I were to fight alone, I would be afraid of you!
Unexpectedly, when he arrived, he couldn't help but frown. He turned out to be a strong young man. He couldn't help but sarcastically said: "Who are you, this hairless little boy?"
Chang Yu raised his eyebrows: "Are you Wang Deren's bastard?"
Wang Zamao snorted: "Why is it your grandfather?"
"Besides, why did you expect to have three heads and six arms, but look like a bear?" Chang Yu rolled his eyes. Wang Zamao was furious and was about to yell. Chang Yu raised his long knife and pointed it at him and said, "I'll spare you today. I'll fuck you again in three days!"
Wang Zamao was furious: "I'm going to kill you right now." He raised his gun and wanted to stab him. Chang Yu swung the knife away and shouted, "You want to start a war with me now!" Wang Zamao was killed by him. After scolding, he woke up a lot. He put away his gun and said: "If you fight me, I'm afraid you won't succeed. Tell me what you want to see me for?"
"Without him, I just want to ask you a few words. Do you know Jin Shenghuan?" Chang Yu chuckled, and Wang Zamao frowned: "I just want to know him!"
Chang Yu chuckled secretly and said, "Since you don't know, forget it. I'll ask you again if Wang Ti Zhong is coming soon. Could you please pass a message to him? If he is willing to surrender, I will guarantee that he will be promoted to the third rank and become a general soldier." It can be printed.”
Wang Zamao frowned and stared at the young man in front of him and asked, "Who are you?"
"I am the Minister of War in Nanjing, Lu Daqi..."
"Fart, you kid dare to lie to me. Don't you know that Lu Daqi is a bad old man and you take me for granted?" Wang Zamao was so angry that he cursed him. Chang Yu rubbed his nose and said, "You fucking let me finish what I'm saying." No, come on, I won’t hide my identity anymore, Admiral Chang Yu of Dongchang is also qualified to recruit you and surrender!"
"It turns out to be a eunuch. I heard that eunuchs like to interfere most... Wait, you are Chang Yu!" Wang Zamao, who was originally cursing, suddenly looked horrified and pointed at Chang Yu: "You, you are that one ...Why are you here?"
Obviously Wang Zamao has heard of Chang Yu's reputation. Nowadays, there are too few thieves, whether Li Zicheng or Zhang Xianzhong, who have never heard of the name of the eunuch of Dongchang, because Chang Yu has shown his sharpness in the past six months, and Li Zicheng is marching eastward. The greater his influence, the greater his reputation for killing thieves.
"After taking care of your master, of course he will come to take care of you!" Chang Yu chuckled. Wang Zamao's face was livid at this time, and his heart was in a mess. He had heard too many rumors about the little eunuch, and he was simply a murderer. The devil, Li Zicheng's hundreds of thousands of troops were almost slaughtered by him, but now he encountered him, and he encountered him under such circumstances.
Too damn scary.
"Are you really that big eunuch?" The little eunuch's reputation was so great that Wang Zamao was in a state of confusion. He couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and asked to calm down.
"Would you like to test whether the rumors are true or not?" Chang Yu sneered and raised his sword: "I will continue to challenge you in a single fight with a group! You can also see if my three hundred cavalry can defeat your thousands of stinky fish and rotten shrimps!"
Wang Zamao looked at the three hundred cavalry behind him and then at the darkening sky. He gritted his teeth and said, "If I surrender, how big an official can you give me?"
Phew! Chang Yu almost choked on his own saliva. He wanted him to send a message to Wang Tizhong to surrender, but this guy wanted to surrender in a hurry, which was beyond his expectation. To be honest, Chang Yu didn't like him at all.
